My Experience: Frustrating TV: very slow to respond to remote control inputs. Takes 45 seconds from power on to showing image during which time you have to stare at the huge Haier logo. Change volume, and the volume bar image stays on-screen for almost a minute unless you press the exit button. And you really have to press the remote buttons quite hard to get action. My 7-year old son cannot change volume -- it requires more pressure on the remote than his fingers can do easily. Picture and sound is OK, but I would not recommend this TV for ANY price.
